Update on Zucchini Pizza

I finally tried the Zucchini Pizza Crust recipe after calculating the total carbs per recipe. I LOVE that I can have pizza again even though it is a bit labor intensive but worth it in my opinion. The original Diabetic Connect recipe showed 1 serving per recipe for this crust but it made a 12-inch pizza pan worth of crust…more than 1 serving for most of us. I would suggest that 8 slices per pan is more appropriate with maybe 2 pieces constituting one serving. The total recipe carbs per www.recipenutrition.com were 64 grams and this is before you add any toppings which would have to be calculated in as well. I baked a regular pizza at the same time for my husband and he's also happy that we may be having pizza more often now.

I originally got this recipe from Diabetic Connect several weeks ago. It was posted by sexyswamprat in 2009. Since I'm now assiduously counting my carbs to calculate my Novolog dosage, I needed to get an accurate per serving carb count. I did not feel the nutritional info provided in the original recipe was accurate. The recipenutrition.com site is a good resource to input recipes and get per serving nutritional values. I figured that the original recipe which made one 12 inch pizza crust yielded 8 servings or slices. It is a bit more work than I like but I'll do it again. Happy Holidays…I'll be happier when the parties and temptations are over!
